Clinical Details for Pairing Bluetooth Peripherals
The following table is intended to help pair peripherals in a clinical environment. As a best practice, it is
recommended to select user peripherals and pair them away from other Bluetooth peripherals in storage.
You are able to match a unique ID number on your peripheral with what is displayed by the Genesis Touch
as a Bluetooth device ID. You may then assign this identification to the LifeStream equipment tracker for
each patient for better health plan management. See the HomMed.com clinical support page for more info.
Examples of device-specific numbers are bold in this chart, indicating when a unique ID is used:
Peripheral
Honeywell HomMed Scale
A&D Scale
Accuro HRS305 Handrail Scale
A&D Digital Blood Pressure Monitor PBT
A&D Digital Blood Pressure Monitor UA-767 PBT-Ci
Nonin Onyx® II 9560 Pulse Oximeter
Contec CMS 50E Pulse Oximeter
ChoiceMed MD300C318T Pulse Oximeter
*The identifying number of a Contec Pulse Oximeter is located opposite of where the finger is
placed into the device.
For installation instructions and other important information, please consult the manufacturer's
user guide that has shipped with your scale.
Setting Up a Scale
If your kit includes a scale, you will need to:
•
Find a location for the scale
•
Properly assemble your scale if necessary and follow all directions in the manual.
•
Configure the monitor to use the type of scale you have and then pair (establish a Bluetooth wireless
connection) the scale with the monitor.
General Guidelines
Before you place the scale, look for the scale's serial number and write it down so that you have it for
pairing to the monitor.
Depending on the scale you have, it is either powered by four AA batteries or plugged into an electrical
outlet through an AC adapter. Refer to the scale manufacturer's instructions for more information.
Scales should be located on hard, un-carpeted surfaces with pressure evenly placed on all four corners. Be
sure to take the patient's mobility into account when placing the scale.
The scale should be close enough to the monitor that it is able to connect via the Bluetooth range (less than
30 feet (10 meters)). It is best if the scale can be placed in a permanent location and has enough room for
the patient to be able to stand on it comfortably without support for the time it takes the monitor to collect
their weight (approximately ten seconds without movement).
Make sure that the scale is in the proper location and doesn't have any weight on it before you attempt to
pair it with the monitor. If there is weight on the scale when you power up, it will not zero
correctly.
DO NOT place your scale in a wet location or near a sink or tub.
